Deadlift is actually not too bad, make it a better habit to flex your triceps harder so you don't tear your biceps and check the how to deadlift thread and browse through for tips & tricks to hone it.

Using your back on the deadlift is fine,thats is one of the muscles used to deadlift, but I would focus on heavy rowing and lots of lat work to prevent rounding, take the stress off the lower and put it in the upper.

I agree about using the back, some people are simply not good at incorporating leg drive into a lift(me).

I'm not sure how exactly I am going to fix my form. but for my next training microcycle, I am going to be doing high volume low weight deficit deficit deadlifts, since the floor is my shit point.

thanks man, I doubt leg drive is going to do much though. I just need to find a way to stay tight from the floor
